It was reported on Thursday that the two leaders including Jammu and Kashmir Congress chief, Tariq Hameed Karra and senior Congress leader Ghulam Ahmad Mir would skip “emergency meeting” of legislators from the ruling alliance called by the Chief Minister in Srinagar.
Senior Congress leader Nizam-ud-din Bhat while talking to the reporters here said that the two leaders couldn’t attend the meeting due to prior commitments in New Delhi.
Moreover, MLA Kulgam, Mohammad Yousuf Tarigami also skipped the meeting due to prior commitments in Tamil Nadu, sources said.
